Why the focus on sunset NC? What about Rocky Point and Haleiwa and other spots? What is it about Sunset? It looks like a tricky somewhat unpredictable cnut of a wave.

Fcuk! I went down to Sunset after the contest finished, the swell jumped 4' in half an hour and it was going mental, closing out the channel, bombing third reef. I paddled out on an 8'0" AB and stalked the second reef from the side, totally undergunned, really you needed a 10'0". It was a solid 12-15' plus, v clean but you had to be soooo careful not to get caught. I got a pretty solid one and rode down it, the 8'0" fully engaging the channels, looked for markers to see where I was in relation to the inside and realised it was one of the ones that were closing out the whole channel to Kammieland. So epic! I faded off the back, went back out, stalked it again and got a nice 12'+ west peak roll-in. This one came back in on the reef and I thought, yeah, she's gonna stand up through that epic gulping inside barrel section, but instead it just went Fcuk You and lurched sideways and shut down. I had to straighten out and got a fantastic flogging, came up and I was in the washing machine inside that piece of reef and outside Val's Reef. So I thought, OK I'll go in now.

Basically Sunset kicked me out!

Perfect conditions but. Baby's bottom surface outside.
Nice one brother, that's what we do.

It's the best wave aside from Pipe, Pipe is occupied. I'll go surf Rockies when it's small enough.

According to Dorsal a bull shark took a fish off a spear fisher at South Bondi this morning. Didn't know you were allowed to spear fish there...but anyway...I must have been out in the surf at the time.
Also one down at The Farm. Waiting for AJ apparently.

Feels good under the arm Cranked. So that’s the main thing lol. But yeah, I like the width in the nose and the pulled in tail. Feels like a good paddler.

Been surfing a mid north coast back beach the last few days. Short punchy, wedgy takeoffs, need to be quick to your feet.
Surfed a shorty and a fish that I thought both would be perfect for but had terrible surfs.
Took a chunky late 70s single out today and had a great surf.
